   I'd love to see a "fixed" version of statsd/graphite/etc that is painless to install, understand and use.

   Check out http://metricshub.com (acquired by Microsoft) that provides a great dashboard of billing usage, but also lets you auto-scale resources, all for free.

   Anyone recommend an easy way to get started with StatsD? I've tried to configure/install/setup StatsD etc in the past but hit so many problems with dependencies, undocumented software needing to be installed, etc. Any tutoria

   A mixture of both - added clarification to the post! Unfortunately Azure is lacking in this department, they seem to have a Virtual Network which may be what I'm after but it's overly complicated, and unfortunately I need a solution for ded

    Probably because that feature starts out with -100 points ( http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ericgu/archive/2004/01/12/57985.aspx ) which sounds like a good way to filter the backlog to me.

    Is there a web app that I can just have control my servers from? I'd like to do puppet/chef, but I read that its not 100% working for Windows yet (I need to manage both) and it sounds overly complicated.

    I think it's obvious that Rap Genius would be happy with a "I see how its a problem, let us fix it" quote from Heroku - just acknowledging that there is an underlying problem and that there is a future on the platform.

    HipChat has the concept of a "notify" flag for every message you send via the API. Notified messages make a ding sound in chat, flash the task bar, etc. For my HipChat setup, build logs are silent (and don't disturb anyone), but a notificat

    Interesting; recently wanted to get into iOS automation testing and we also have an Android product so a unified test framework would be great. I notice from the screenshots it takes a while to get through each step, is this due to the simu
